Case of “unknowns” hijacking isolated protests with “anti-corruption” rhetoric

INTERESTINGLY, some in mainstream media last Saturday said, Shushila Karki former Chief Justice had been
“unanimously agreed upon” by “Gen-Z” on Friday (12 Sept.) as Prime Minister of the Nepali Interim Government, and was sworn in the same day. Wonder how “Gen-Z”, only a popular label given to a population between the ages of 15 and maximum 30 years, is largely flotsam and live on social media, decide “unanimously” on anything. Worst is, in accepting few unknown youth with no idea about a program for regime change, as the legitimate “political entity” that could decide, regime change for a better future.
Some media meanwhile reported a volunteer group of Gen-Z “campaigners” interacted with the military leadership and President Ramchandra Paudel to appoint an interim government till elections are held. Some said, military head General Ashok Raj Sigdel co-ordi-nated and facilitated all negotiations. The delay in bringing Karki as interim PM was due to disagreement on dissolving of the parliament, said some reports. That was also resolved in favour of dissolution, when army commander Sigdel threatened, he would have to reimpose emergency and curfew, if there is no agreement on dissolution of parliament.
This makes three South Asian countries — Sri Lanka in 2022 April-July, Bangladesh in 2024 July-August and now Nepal in 2025 September, unconstitutionally toppling constitutionally established regimes during the past three years. In all three countries, there was vandalism of State property with Sri Lanka reporting the least damage. Yet there were burning of over 75 houses of Government politicians across the country, sans North-East provinces.
